Daniel Channing Moore

1976 - 2016

Daniel Channing Moore, 39, beloved son, brother, uncle and friend, died

peacefully in his sleep on July 10, 2016. In addition to his grandparents,

he is preceded in death by his mother, Gayle Beasley Moore, and Kada, his

cherished dog companion. Daniel is survived by his father and stepmother,

Gary and Martha Moore, Oxford, Georgia; brother, Bryan Moore, nephews,

Quinn Moore and Isaiah Moore, niece, London Moore, Athens, Georgia;

stepsister, Loren (Jeff) Bragg, Douglasville, Georgia, and uncle, Kenneth

Beasley, Warner Robins, Georgia.

Born September 2, 1976, in Griffin, Georgia, Daniel moved to Athens with

his family in 1978 and grew up in the Green Acres community. He attended

Cedar Shoals High School, and graduated from Athens Academy. Daniel

received the Bachelor of Business Administration Degree in General Business

from Georgia College and State University, Milledgeville, Georgia, where he

was a member of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity, Lambda-Xi Chapter. He was

employed by Vankirk Electric in Winder, Georgia.

Daniel was loved by all who knew him, especially his nephews and niece, who

affectionately called him "Edo". He was just another "kid" when they were

together, most recently enjoying a "sleepover" at Edo's, with dinner at

Mama Sid's and ice cream at Menchie's. One of his favorite pastimes was

taking his Harley on rides through the mountains of North Georgia to clear

his mind and soothe his soul. Daniel was an avid sports fan, from golf to

soccer to MMA, and, of course, the University of Georgia Bulldogs. He loved

music, particularly Chris Stapleton. There was nothing more important to

Daniel than family and friends.

Gentle, kind, loyal and generous, Daniel is best remembered by the comments

of his many friends: "Daniel was the TRUE meaning of a Southern Gentleman";

"He was always one of the most genuine people I knew. Always there for a

good smile"; "a great friend, who always put everyone else first and was

always there to help when help was needed"; "a great guy and a dedicated

Dawg fan; always the first one to let me know that Ga. Tech sucked". "We

wonder sometimes if our lives have meaning and make a difference. Daniel's

did and will continue to. He will always live in the hearts of those

fortunate enough to have known him and whose lives he touched."
